Thank you! Almost two years later and you still took the time to write. We all appreciate that! I don't think that we have changed much since then, perhaps a wrinkle or gray hair, but for the most part we are still the same place you remember! The town of Bar Harbor keeps growing in many directions but we remain... More

Thank you for the kind review of The Bayview. All in all I think you had a nice time and that is what matters. You are right about the "luxury bit". That is not who we are at all. This is a spectacular property directly on the water. It is not satin and chrome or stocked with mini bars. There... More

Thank you so much for the lovely review. It is a great for us to know that people do appreciate the extra touches we try to give and understand how important your vacation is to us. Perhaps we have a mutual admiration society going on here because we were all very impressed with your husband's advance planning too! I think... More

Thank you! As a local I think the location is great too! I live downtown and really appreciate the peacefulness of being here on the water.

Regarding our friendly and helpful staff; I can honestly say we all enjoy what we do,... More

Thank you! It's funny you talked about the deer. I pulled in this morning and there were three of them standing in the driveway! It is nice in the early morning to see them strolling the grounds. I am pleased you had such a nice time and wish you could have stayed more than one night too! I will pass... More

Thank you very much for the great review. I love the balconies too! We added them on almost 20 years after the hotel was built and what a difference they make! So close to the water, so peaceful and quiet, so relaxing! It is great that with all your activities you were still able to find the time and relax!... More

Thank you very much for the lovely review! It certainly speaks volumes about your experience and each one of our staff will be very pleased when they read it. I find that the more years I do this, the more difficult it can be to please everyone. We all know that is a daunting, if not impossible,task for all! We... More
